摘要： According to one embodiment, an ultrasonic probe includes a probe unit and cooling unit. The probe unit is obtained by arranging, in a housing, a transducer unit which transmits and receives ultrasonic waves with an object to be examined, an electronic circuit unit which is connected to the transducer unit and performs electrical signal processing, and a heat transfer member which is made of a material having a heat transfer coefficient higher than that of the electronic circuit unit, and transfers heat of the electronic circuit unit to a housing surface. The cooling unit is detachably mounted on the housing of the probe unit, and cools the heat transfer member by passing a coolant in a channel formed inside the cooling unit.

摘要： An ultrasound diagnostic imaging device has an optional-direction M-mode cursor set position information selector for selecting optional-direction M-mode cursor set position information, a memory, and an optional-direction M-mode cursor image generator. The memory stores optional-direction M-mode cursor set position information, associating it with the optional-direction M-mode cursor set position information selector. The optional-direction M-mode cursor image generator generates an optional-direction M-mode cursor image, based on the optional-direction M-mode cursor set position information that has been associated with the optional-direction M-mode cursor set position information selector that was selected.
